Leeds United will begin the 2026/27 Premier League season away at Nottingham Forest on the weekend of August 22, before hosting Brentford at Elland Road a week later.
This will mark the first time the Whites play a competitive fixture in LS11 since the work on the West Stand expansion began, having already staged a friendly there against RB Leipzig earlier in the month.
Leeds host Manchester United in mid-October before playing at Old Trafford in May in the third-to-last fixture. The Whites travel to Chelsea on the weekend of November 21 before they come to Elland Road just over two months later, in January.
On the subject of the festive season, Leeds host Fulham on December 19 – the final fixture before Christmas – before travelling away to Aston Villa on Boxing Day. The maiden fixture of 2027 consists of a home game against Everton, currently slated for January 2.
January looks to be a tricky month with Manchester City, Tottenham and Chelsea also to play before closing out with a trip to new boys Coventry City. The run-in is also not as kind as last season.
Leeds face Liverpool at home, Arsenal at home and Man Utd away in their final six fixtures, though a home game against Sunderland and a final day away trip to Crystal Palace closes the season more softly.
Leeds do not face any of the five Champions League teams in the first two months – or five games – of the season. This year, there are only two international break periods, but the first between September and October is elongated, meaning there are three weeks between league fixtures.
Upon returning to action in September, Leeds will face champions Arsenal away before Man Utd at home. The furthest away days at Brighton & Hove Albion and Bournemouth come in early September and late October, respectively.
The trip to Sunderland, on October 24, comes a week before the visit to Bournemouth. Leeds play Newcastle United away on the weekend of March 20 and the away road trip to Ipswich Town comes on May 1.
The return of a Yorkshire derby sees Leeds visit Hull City in the final fixture of 2026, which is set to be a midweek game. The reverse fixture comes on the first weekend of March.
Other notable fixtures include the away clash with Liverpool on December 12, the visit of Frank Lampard and his Coventry City side on November 28 and hosting Tottenham Hotspur on November 7 with the trip to Spurs set for January 16.
